For anyone interested in contributing to the project, there's a need for people with non-Mac machines to compile the lib and contribute it to a machine/architecture specific directory so it can be used easily for people without a C compiler.

There's also a need for people to add custom encoder/decoders for efficient data type transfer from Mathematica to convenient python forms. Currently things like PackedArray, RawArray, Image, SparseArray, and HashTable are supported. This uses an encoder on the Mathematica side and a decoder on the python side. Submissions of either are highly appreciated.

All ideas and other contributions are welcome, too.
